little information is available regarding genetic variation in wild wheat relatives from iran. in this study, genetic diversity of 36 populations of wild einkorn wheat, triticum boeoticum, was studied using amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) primer combinations. seventeen aflp primer combinations led to amplify 979 scorable fragments ranging from 50 to 500 bp and of these, 429 (44%) ...

under an intensive competitive environment, the construction industry is facing pressure to meet the higher customer expectations under a tighter budget. on the other hand, construction is one of the main sectors generating greenhouse gases. according to published statistics, construction industry is one of the most important resources of greenhouse emissions in the world. therefore, based on t...

Body weight (BW) records (n=11,659) of 4961 Kurdi sheep from 215 sires and 2085 dams were used to estimate the additive genetic, direct and maternal permanent environmental effects on growth from 1 to 300 days of age. The data were collected from 1993 to 2015 at a breeding station in North Khorasan province; Iran. Genetic parameters for growth traits were estimated using random regression test-...

Fenugreek is one of the important edible and medicinal vegetables that have a long history of cultivation and consumption. Characterize the extent of the genetic diversity among landraces will provide a good context for future breeding programs and genetic resource preservation. Genetic diversity and population structure of 88 individuals of eight landraces of Iranian fenugreek evaluated based ...

The classification of bamboos based on floral morphology and reproductive characters is very hard due to erratic flowering behavior and unusually long reproductive cycle. The application of reliable and effective DNA molecular markers is highly essential to address this problem. In the present investigation, inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers were employed to study phylogenetic relati...
